Chapter 584 Why wasn’t it me who picked up this palace?

A man and a cat came to the Tree of Life which was transformed from the Greedy Demon.

This big tree is lush and leafy. Under the dual influence of "Harvest Blessing" and "Spiritual Plant Field", it can produce 50-60 spiritual consumables a year.

Occasionally, it can also produce some materials with life attributes, such as leaves and branches. For some small tribes, this can be regarded as an example of a tree supporting an entire civilization.

Lu Yuan's mind moved, and the bark of the Tree of Life kept wriggling, expanding to form a small tree hole.

"Meow!" The old cat rushed into the tree hole first.

Lu Yuan followed closely behind.

Crossing the dark little room, Lord Cat plunged into the fairy palace.

A bright light is coming towards us.

Then, it saw six aliens, Jin Bot of the Lanpeng civilization, and the ancient insect.

These guys looked constipated, and it was obvious that they had been waiting for a long time and were already impatient.

"Hello, Mr. Cat." Jinbot greeted it and bowed.

The old cat shouted, "Why are there so many people? What good trash did Lu Yuan pick up?"

"I now suspect that he is the biological son of Pangu Continent!" The old snake man spat out his snake tongue, and his rattlesnake tail clucked, and he said in a hurried tone: "Every good thing has happened to him! Damn it, why can't I have it?"

"Why hasn't this guy appeared yet?!"

"He deserves to die!"

The jealousy in the hearts of the old alien group.

If their civilization had picked up this kind of garbage, they might not be in this place! The more they thought about this legacy, the more perverted they felt it was, even more perverted than the Chaos Essence Stone.

"Speak clearly, meow! Stop being a riddle teller!" The old cat felt something was wrong, and its furry tail pointed towards the sky.

The old snake man said hurriedly: "He picked up the top legacy of the Fourth Era, the [Monster] Temple!! There is the remains of a [Monster] myth inside! Immortal level! There may be more heritage!"

The old cat was silent for a long time and fell into a state of stillness.

It...froze.

After the old cat restarted, it let out a sharp scream... as if an electric current was flowing through the depths of its silicon-based brain.

At this moment, it experienced a long-lost feeling... of being alive!

It's alive again! I, an old cat, am actually jealous.

Then, with a "pop", the furry cat head fell down after a long absence and rolled to Lu Yuan's feet.

Lu Yuan just stepped into the "Immortal Palace Hall" and picked up the cat head.

The cat also looked at him with its eyes wide open.

Old Lu couldn't help but tremble twice. What's wrong with you? Are you having an old illness again? ...

Finally, under the urging of a group of old guys, Lu Yuan opened the layer of light curtain.

"Everyone, please come in. There's nothing special inside, just a well-preserved corpse."

"It's not my good luck that I picked up this heritage, but I caught a giant crystal turtle. It is a survivor of the Fourth Age, so it knows the location of this heritage. Hahaha!" He almost couldn't hold it in after saying this.

A group of people rushed in.

They looked around, and even tapped the wall with their fingers, trying to dig something out.

Why didn't I pick up this palace?

The luxurious walls and floors, coupled with the legendary spirit crystals used as lighting, make it feel like being surrounded by a mountain of gold and silver.

This is truly a top-notch relic.

The strongest alien here, the Jingtong clan, is only at the fifth level of civilization. They have never seen such a luxurious palace. All kinds of extraordinary materials are piled up like crazy as if they were free.

"Perhaps only a level 7 civilization, or even the legendary level 8 civilization, can be so wealthy..."

The old cat was jealous and envious, and looked at Lu Yuan eagerly.

Please, comrade! Sell it to humans cheaply!

It is truly dedicated to humanity.

"I estimate that this palace, just the jade, tiles, and walls seen on the surface, may have 34,000 spiritual charms."

"As for the materials inside the wall, it's hard to estimate. I'll double the price I see, 68,000."

"There are also some legendary materials."

"These materials have various properties, especially life properties... Look at this pillar, it should be the legendary world tree, standing tall and upright, and never decaying. This is also a top-grade legendary material, close to the epic level. For a small clan, it is already a priceless treasure."

"The top civilization of ancient times is indeed wealthy and powerful, making people look up to it." The strangers came to a general conclusion.

Among extraordinary items, consumables have the lowest prices.

As for consumables, they are gone once they are used up, and there is new output every year, so naturally they cannot be sold at too high a price.

The price of forging materials is about 10-30 times that of consumables of the same level! Among them, metal materials can be smelted and recycled, so the premium is about 15-20 times.

As for materials with life attributes, they have the highest premium, which can be exchanged for about 30 times the consumables of the same level.

Lu Yuan was overjoyed, but pretended to be calm: "Materials below Legendary are worth 100,000 to 110,000. Materials above Legendary are mainly the most valuable, the pillars and beams, right?"

"Yes. Materials above Legendary level are basically priced in Civilization Points. You have to negotiate how much they are worth."

"The World Tree is the mother tree of a small world in the Fourth Age. All living things live on this big tree."

"So its life attributes are exceptionally pure."

The crystal man looked at the fidgeting ancient insect and transmitted his voice: "Such a large pillar beam, even if it is only legendary, can be easily sold for 3,000 civilization points... It can be used to make a lot of epic and even immortal equipment."

"If you meet a qualified trading partner, I wouldn't be surprised if you sold it to me for 5,000 points."

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows. He spent 800 points to buy the ancient insect horn. Isn't it a huge profit? He couldn't let this old guy know about this!

Then give some compensation secretly...

"No, this palace cannot be dismantled easily."

The armored stranger checked it several times and explained, "I observed that the shape of this palace vaguely conforms to a certain ancient formation - the Xing Qin Kun Convergence Formation."

"Formation?" Lu Yuan was surprised.

"Yes. In ancient times, supernatural materials were more abundant, so it was not necessary to use carvings to achieve supernatural effects. These formations often rely on astrology and geographical environment to exert supernatural effects."

"The benefit is that it can bring extremely high reliability, allowing items to be used for a longer period of time."

"The shelf life of carvings is only a few thousand years, and it would be hard to survive ten thousand years. But using formations and carvings together can last for several epochs. It seems that this civilization has put in a lot of effort."

This was knowledge that Lu Yuan didn't know, so he pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

The armored stranger pointed to the top of the palace and said, "Look, the four sculptures above the palace are emitting light that vaguely forms the shape of a lens. Do you see it?"

"It means that this palace can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon in the sky and maintain the spiritual energy balance of the spirit crystal. Otherwise, where did the energy come from for so many years? The legendary spirit crystal would not be able to shine for five epochs."

Lu Yuan nodded. This should be a system for collecting "Aurora".

The collected auroras are used for long-term upgrades of the Veil of Time.

The armored alien patted the 10-meter-thick pillar again and said, "Also, I noticed that the surrounding atmosphere has a unique vitality that is specially used to preserve items and keep corpses from decaying for a long time."

"It should be the linkage between the formation and the glyph."

"So much time has passed that the aura of the Monster's myth has slowly merged with this palace. If you demolish the palace, the Monster's eyeball won't decay immediately, but it will inevitably lose some of its power."

"So think about it carefully."

Lu Yuan was a little hesitant.

"Hmph, that's fine!" said the old cat. "Let the greedy demon devour his corpse, and the palace will be empty, right? We can just stuff this big eyeball in there and use it as a demon organ. It won't be a waste!"

Good man, you are after my property! Actually, after Lu Yuan found this eyeball, he also had the idea of ​​creating an organ...

But it was strategically abandoned.

On the one hand, it consumes high-level inspiration.

On the other hand, it's too ugly! The diameter of this eyeball is 150 meters, and the height of the Greedy Demon is only 300 meters. What kind of weird appearance would it be if a big eyeball was stuffed in it?

Unless the Greedy Demon God grows to a height of 12,500 meters, installing this thing will allow him to maintain normal human proportions...

"Ahem, no, you don't think this is like building blocks, you can just put it in there as you like, right? It will consume a high-level inspiration!" Lu Yuan shook his head quickly, "Even if I try my best to install this eyeball, it will still take time."

Another stranger said, "I don't think it's necessary either."

"Indeed, Mr. Cat, you are too anxious. Humans have their own opportunities and windfalls, and humans can't handle them all. They are developing very fast now."

"This eyeball is indeed top-notch, but it can be used normally even without installation."

"Why waste an inspiration when it can be used normally?"

Many people expressed their objections.

The old cat had no choice but to be persuaded. This was indeed Lu Yuan’s personal wealth, and it couldn’t say much.

Then, they saw the second treasure - "The Relic of Time"! This was definitely a real good thing, and it was different from the [monster] myth that could not be seen in the light of day.

It can be taken out of the Asgard and used directly!

Lu Yuan was not stingy and let his allies touch this completely transparent magical product - even though they were just a group of spiritual beings and not physical entities, they could still produce a certain degree of touch.

The remains of time are colorless and odorless, transparent and delicate, and feel like the finest silk, icy and cool to the touch.

But it is extremely tough and an ordinary sword or knife will not leave any scratch on it.

"It feels so magical. Touching the veil, it's like seeing the birth and destruction of an era."

"Except for some mythical weapons that can forcibly destroy it, the rest of the weapons are probably useless! It is indeed a natural magic weapon." The armored stranger said with scorching eyes.

"Seniors, I have a question. If I take this item away, won't my eyeball be damaged?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Don't worry. You just need to use the Tree of Life to regularly inject some vitality into the eyeball to ensure that its power will not decline."

After the old aliens put aside their jealousy, they began to excitedly come up with ideas.

Fanaticism and passion occupied their minds.

The Ninth Era is so crazy that treasures of this level can appear out of nowhere. Time is running out and we must plan carefully!

But how to use "Relics of Time"... I don't know!

Even the knowledgeable "Living Library" Crystal Man couldn't explain it.

Really use it as a defensive cloak? That's too extravagant.

"Time is not actually a specific attribute... You want to use it to completely control the time of the entire world, but that's not realistic. At most, you can only control the time of a small area."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Like the [Demon·The Hub of Illusion], it controls its own time. After being accelerated ten thousand times or a hundred thousand times, its movement speed is comparable to the speed of light.

[Demon·The Pivot of Illusion] If you want to control other people's time, you must touch them on a physical level.

"The best way I can think of to utilize it is the time-sealing ability!" said the armored alien.

"Wrap the ghost with this piece of gauze, maybe the ghost will be suppressed directly!"

Lu Yuan shuddered. This is my treasure. How can it be used as a shroud? But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed possible.

The so-called "anti-corrosion" ability is actually the slowing down of the flow of time, so it is very effective for sealing.

"Oh, by the way, using it as a protective layer can resist attacks from many top-level beings. It can defend against curse abilities, concept erasure, and time-related abilities."

"Of course, if you need better protection, you have to forge it yourself. At least you have to get a mythical one, right?"

Lu Yuan was a little moved, but he also had a bitter face: "Myth, how can it be so easy?"

"Hey, it's normal for a top civilization to have multiple myths!" The armored alien put his hands on his hips, "You have to know that the gap between civilizations is expanding exponentially. Either there is no myth at all, or there are many."

Another alien helped out, "It's just... top-grade materials. It's a pity not to forge a myth."

"If you ask me, we need all of them, offensive, defensive, and functional! The Time Relic must produce at least three myths to live up to its preciousness!!"

"Lu Yuan, seize the opportunity!"

Lu Yuan suddenly felt that these guys had gone completely crazy.

Only Lao Mao helped his comrades: "So many myths are useless! The Greedy Demon is the real core. Eat this Time Relic and get a Demon Organ. That's the most important thing."

I still like the old cat the most.

Lu Yuan shrank his head: "If we want to get the devil's organ, it will be quite difficult."

"I have to at least figure out what the attributes of time are before I can give it a try... Working in isolation and relying solely on epiphany is still too inefficient."

"There is an inexplicable connection between time and space."

"This connection is very abstract, and only a Level 5 civilization can get a glimpse of it." The large crystal man is a relatively calm type, not as crazy as other aliens. "Unfortunately, our Crystal Civilization, as a Level 5 civilization, has lost its data, otherwise it could be given to you."

In materialism, the relationship between time and space can be described by the theory of general relativity.

General relativity states that mass curves space-time, which is a combination of space and time.

But what exactly is mass? This involves gauge field theory, and gauge field theory cannot describe gravity.

Therefore, human materialism is actually incomplete and cannot accurately describe what "space and time" are.

As for time and space in idealism, humans know nothing about them and have no method to study them.

"There is another plan, to revive the [Demon·Illusion Hub]. It is a very rare 'demon' with the ability to control time, and perhaps it has some insights." The crystal man said again.

The old cat questioned: "Do you have any way to control this guy?"

"No, it is one of the four great natural disasters after all. It depends on their awareness."

Lu Yuan shook his head: "That's still too dangerous. This guy's mindset may have undergone a fundamental change. If a former warrior is corrupted, the destructive power he brings cannot be underestimated."

"I don't trust this guy."

He would rather figure it out slowly on his own than hand over this precious treasure to a demon.

Furthermore, he could even ask the mirror [demon].

He now has enough strength to face this mysterious demon.

…

Just like that, after evaluating the inheritance, everyone returned to the "Heavenly Palace" with a sense of unfulfilled desire and sat around the big round table.

The mentality at this moment is somewhat different. They are people who deserve to die, and they are still alive just to witness the moment of their death.

But suddenly I saw a glimmer of hope...

Even though this hope was fragile, it still generated a heartfelt joy.

"Oh, if only the old guys from the past were still alive."

"Once upon a time, there were fifty or sixty aliens in this alien space..."

Then, the giant crystal man made another guess - the monster might have been killed by the curse of Pangu Continent.

This seems very scary.

It was the first time that Lu Yuan heard this, and he couldn't help but feel hot all over and his blood pressure rose.

"This incident may be the main reason why subsequent peak civilizations no longer follow the path of visions."

"Lu Yuan, what do you think?"

Lu Yuan pondered for a long time. It turned out that this was the reason why [Noah's Ark] did not separate the Northern Territory. It would be bad enough if the pillar ran away, but he also wanted to cut off a piece of his flesh. It would be strange if Pangu Continent was not angry.

"Is the power of Pangu Continent stronger than a top myth?"

The crystal man said, "That is natural. The power of heaven and earth. If a civilization can borrow even a tiny bit of it, it will already be a fourth-level civilization. How powerful do you think it is? Cursing a myth to death is really easy?"

"But it can only curse those who are closely related to it."

"It can't distinguish the common creatures or those that are not closely related to it. It has no eyes, mouth, or ears."

"Don't overestimate the intelligence of the world's will. Everything it does is based on innate instinct. Sometimes it is extremely smart, but most of the time it is stupid as hell. Don't expect God to give you justice."

The world will is not life.

It's like an ecosystem with the ability to self-regulate.

If there are more plants, the number of animals will also increase; if there are more animals, the number of plants will decrease, and the number of animals will also decrease.

This system is like a precise balance system, where yin and yang complement and restrain each other, but also circulate repeatedly and maintain long-term balance.

The "world will" of the idealistic world is a more complex system of rules, which also has the ability to self-regulate.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask: "So what I am like now, is it considered a close relationship? I have picked up so many natural treasures and collected so much luck."

"If we want to escape from Pangu Continent, we will have to pay a huge price, right?"

Lu Yuan thought of the mirror [demon], this mysterious existence.

Thinking back to when the mirror [devil] discovered that he was walking on the path of vision, he was surprised for a long time, and then began to mock him, saying that he, Lu Yuan, would pay the price.

Lu Yuan never knew what it was mocking.

Until now, the answer has finally come out - I, Lu Yuan, am bound to Pangu Continent?! There are so many big holes dug in history that it is impossible to avoid them all.

The large crystal man said: "The world will of Pangu Continent is the collective thinking of all living things, but it does not include those dead things."

"Jade, metal, and machinery are not within the jurisdiction of the world's will. Whoever picks up the treasures of heaven and earth owns them."

"Of course, it can sense some precious plants and rare phenomena... It must know you exist, but it doesn't know how much trash you have picked up."

"Also, your luck is indeed related to Pangu Continent, but it has nothing to do with the will of the world, so you don't need to worry too much." The crystal man was silent for a moment, and added, "Historical luck is the common rule of the entire long river of time and the idealistic universe. It is the feedback of time and space, and it is not given to you by the will of the world."

"So you don't have to overestimate the world's will, but you can't underestimate it either."

"When you want to fight against the enemy, it is a reliable and powerful comrade; when you want to escape, the more you take away from this world, the more hostile it becomes to you."

He snorted coldly: "So many civilizations left their heritage behind before they fled. Otherwise, do you really think they were morally upright? This is to avoid the possibility of being cursed by the world's will."

"The things done in the Fourth Age are not authentic. Hebrew civilization is really despicable!"

"Why?" Lu Yuan asked.

The crystal man was speechless: "They lost their wealth and used a different dimension to protect it. No one has found it for five epochs. It's obvious that they saved it and wanted to come back and take it later."

"The powerful civilizations that truly gift wealth all diversify their investments and distribute their wealth across the Pangu Continent. How could they pile all their wealth in one palace like this?"

The crystal man drew some horizontal lines on the table: "At first, [Noah's Ark] wanted to separate from the North, but the [Monster] myth was cursed to death. But the remaining people still want to escape. What should we do?"

"They had no choice but to abandon the North and donate the corpse to build a luxurious palace. That's how they got the chance to escape."

"Otherwise, do you think Hebrew civilization has such good moral qualities?"

"As for the information they left behind, it's just to glorify themselves. Don't believe it all!"

…
